How To Make Dried Orange Ornaments

Dried Orange Ornaments:

There's nothing like the smell of fresh cinnamon flowing straight through the air on a brisk Christmas morning. Dried fruit ornaments not only add a sweet scent to your home but also look lovely hanging on your Christmas tree glimmering in the Christmas lights. The process of drying the fruit is quite uncomplicated and with just one orange you can make several ornaments. These can also be great to use as air fresheners to hang in the bathroom or living room. After my first year of manufacture these dried orange ornaments I liked them so much that now it's become sort of a each year tradition with my family.

Dried Fruit

Start by getting a cutting board and knife and slice the oranges crosswise in about quarter inch slices then straight through out the ends. I ordinarily only use one orange to which makes six to eight ornaments but you can use more. After you have slice all your oranges place them on a greased cookie sheet or you can lay them directly on the rack. First you need to dry out the orange slices by taking a paper towel and blotting out the juices on each orange slice. To add a appetizing scent just gradually rub some ground cinnamon into the slices. The cinnamon covered slices tend to not catch as much light so you might want to leave a couple of your orange slices plain. Place in the oven at 275 degrees for the first hour and then 225 degrees for other two hours. Bake until your orange slices are completely dry. Allow some time for the orange slices to cool and once cool you can decorate them with a minute glitter to add some extra sparkle. To make a hanger poke a whole in you orange slice and tie some ornamental ribbon straight through it. For an added accent use some of the ribbon to make a bow and glue on the top of your ornament.

I just love the smell and look these ornaments there so beautiful, very uncomplicated to make and also inexpensive. Their are many uses for dried fruit ornaments you can use them to make ornamental wreaths for your home or tie them to gifts with the name tags it will make your Christmas gifts extra special. You can also make some ornaments out of other fruits too like apples.

Items you need to get started:

How to Make a Christingle Orange

What do you know about the Christingle?

Christingle means 'Christ-Light'. The Christingle celebrates the light of Christ and puts Christ back into Christmas.
The first Christingle service was in Germany around 1747. The service encouraged children to keep a candle burning in the window of their home so that people who passed by would see the light of Christ.

The Christingle service teaches children about Jesus. Of course Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus, but the Christingle celebrates the meaning of Jesus' life, with each part of the Christingle orange having it's own symbolic meaning.

The orange itself represents the world.

The red ribbon around the orange symbolises the blood of Christ that Jesus shed to save us from our sin.

The four cocktail sticks are the four seasons of the year.

The dried fruit or sweets represent the fruits of the earth and the earth's riches God has blessed the world with.

The white candle, which is place in the top of the orange, represents Jesus, the light of the world that shines over everything.

The Christingle service usually takes place on the last Sunday before Christmas or on Christmas Eve. You could contact your local church for more details about visiting the Christingle service.

Of course you don't have to go to church, you could make your own Christingle range. All you need is...
An orange, 4 cocktail sticks, red ribbon, dried fruit or small soft sweets such as jellies pins and a white candle.

Cut a hole in the top of the orange so that the candle will sit snugly in place.

Wrap a length of red ribbon around the middle of the orange. Hold the ribbon in place with pins, push the pins into the orange.

Carefully push dried fruit or soft sweets onto each cocktail stick, so that the cocktail stick is half covered Carefully push the cocktail stick into the orange above the red ribbon. Evenly space the cocktail sticks out to the Four Corners of the world.

Finally add the white candle to the top of the orange. Light the candle and leave it in a window for passers by to see the light of Christ. Do be careful not to burn the curtains, do not leave the candle unattended. Remember to enjoy the fruits of the earth.
